DAHDI_WAITFOR_SPAN_ASSIGNMENTS(8)
π DAHDI_WAITFOR_SPAN_ASSIGNMENTS π
okay bestie, so this page is dahdi_waitfor_span_assignments from section 8 of the manual, and it is literally just "wait, bestie, let the spans settle" energy. no cap.
β¨ NAME β¨
dahdi_waitfor_span_assignments β wait for DAHDI spans to get (un)assigned π¦
πΈ SYNOPSIS πΈ
dahdi_span_assignments assigned
dahdi_span_assignments unassigned
yes, that is exactly what the page says, i'm not editing it, i'm not "fixing" it, i'm just showing you the receipts π
π DESCRIPTION π
so. DAHDI spans get assigned / unassigned asynchronously. meaning they do it whenever they feel like it, main character energy, on their own schedule. π
dahdi_span_assignments is a helper script that lets you run commands after all the spans have been assigned or unassigned. like, it holds your hand and says "okay bestie, now you can go". π«Ά
it takes a single command: assigned or unassigned β pick one β and then it waits for all the DAHDI spans in the system to do that thing. it waits up until a timeout of 5 seconds. so 5 seconds, that's the whole patience budget, periodt.
β οΈ heads up: if the system has a span that will not get assigned automatically (for example: it's not in assigned-spans.conf), this program does not know that. it will just keep waiting until the timeout. it's not ghosting you, it's just not omniscient. π
π₯ EXAMPLES π₯
the way these go so hard:
modprobe wctdm24xxp
dahdi_waitfor_span_assignments assigned
do_something
and then, iconic behaviour:
dahdi_span_assignments add
dahdi_waitfor_span_assignments assigned
do_something_else
and finally, for the plot twist:
dahdi_span_assignments remove
dahdi_waitfor_span_assignments unassigned
do_something_completely_different
